Being healthy is beautiful

Tested: Essie Bahama Mama

It’s been quite a long time since my last ‚Tested‘ post and even longer since my last post about nailpolishes. But no more waiting anymore! I recently tested Essie’s Bahama Mama nailpolish (I’m even wearing it right now, what does this probably mean…) and here’s what I think about it!

Bahama Mama – the name is just genius! I always think about ‚Scrubs‘ when I hear it. (; The color is a mixture between a deep red and a dark berry color, in my opinion it’s perfect for fall and also winter. It doesn’t have any shimmer to it but is – even without top coat – very shiny.
As usual, the application of Essie nailpolishes is pretty easy due to their wide, flat and rounded brushes. Same goes with Bahama Mama. What I also like is that you only need one coat for an even and covering result.
After applying base coat, one coat of Bahama Mama and top coat, your manicure should last for about six days without any sign of chipping, if you don’t wear topcoat it may last for approximately four days. In my opinion that’s okay and appropriate for the price.

All in all I can recommend this nailpolish from Essie. I just love, love, love the color, it looks great with pale skin (yaaay)! The application is easy and smooth and it lasts pretty long.
It is available at dm, Müller and Douglas for example and costs about 8€.
What do YOU think of this color? What’s YOUR favourite nailpolish for fall?
